9/26/2023

I loved most of the staff and academics. I enjoyed most of their electives and subjects. I learned a good amount of things like math and some science, however, my 8th grade year was cut short due to covid. When I attended this school it was at one of its peak years as I have learned that it is now a lot less strict.

The teachers were helpful and kind. Although the dress code is absurd. Girls are not aloud to wear tank tops and sh...
